Whose Shoes Wednesday…The Answer!
By Manolo the ShoebloggerManolo asked, whose shoes?
Manolo answers it is the Tom Jones!
Congratulations to the Manolo’s super fantastic friend Gracie, who was the first to correctly identify the one of the most difficult celebrities ever featured on the Whose Shoes Wednesday! Well done!

“Mom, was the world a better place when you were a kid?”
(looks at that picture, winces, looks again) No, honey. No they weren’t.

Congratulations, Gracie! Had I remembered Tom Jones loved his Cuban heels, I would have gotten this one.
Now…I’d love to hear his excuse for the ridiculous breaks on those pants.

The man can sing! I can understand why women threw their panties at him. Go to youtube and watch him sing “Delilah.” The world is definitely a better place with Tom Jones in it. He still has it.
The acoustics are better on this one,

but this one is a better performance (although still restrained).

That is quite possibly the most heinous picture of Tom Jones ever. The copious chest hair, I can take. The direct “look right here at my Spandex-clad manhood, surrounded by thickets of upper leg hair, baby!” crotch shot, I can’t. Blech.

I had the great fortune of watching Tom Jones live in concert (it’s a long story, involving my parents grounding me and my Dad taking me instead of my mom) and I can say for sure that my 18-year old self enjoyed that gig a whole lot more than my folks did, even with the crotch grabbing and the leather pants. He even sang a cover of EMF’s “Unbelievable,” which was… well, just that.
The man is a rock star, in every sense of the word.

K, I’m not thrilled with the pose, either, but at least he has body hair, unlike those effete metrosexuals who shave or wax it all off. How’s a girl supposed to keep warm in the winter if her man doesn’t have chest hair?

I really REALLY like that pic of him. Is this wrong? Please advise.
Thanks.

class factotum, agreed, actually. If there’s one thing I hate more than sweater-like excess body hair, it’s a complete and unnatural lack of hair on a grown man’s body. Men should have hair on their chests; waxed chests freak me the hell out.

Why, oh why does this man keep coming up in my life?!? My 6 yr old son has been running around for weeks singing “What’s New Pussycat” over and over and over at the top of his lungs and now this! ::head explodes::

The Annalucia does not quite believe in this photo. The image of Mr. Jones, it appears to have been cut out from another photo and superimposed upon the swimming-pool background. In fact she is wondering if the head of Mr. Jones has been attached to the body of some other, much younger, man (for Mr. Jones is pushing seventy, is he not? Or is it the photo taken in a decade long past?)
And K dear, not all men who lack chest hair are guilty of waxing. Some are just lightly endowed in that department, and you may believe the Annalucia when she says that it is no indication of their abilities with regard to other masculine activities.

Wow! I used to have a small crush on Tom Jones when I was a little girl.
